Simplifying the Holildays (Where to get takeout)
Going on vacation at Christmas can dramatically reduce stress by changing the backdrop and pace of the holiday. And we think vacationing on Hilton Head Island for Christmas is a great way to spend the holiday! With fewer decorating deadlines, gift-wrapping pressures, and routine expectations, you escape the usual home-centered rituals that can feel overwhelming. A new setting like Hilton Head Island offers fresh routines, slower rhythms, and more opportunities to relax, reconnect, and create low-stress traditions—like simple shared meals, easy sightseeing, or lounging together without a crowded to-do list. We love this time of year on the Island!

Sprout Momma was founded on Hilton Head Island in 2008 and is more than a bakery. We’re excited to know they offer holiday catering. Outside of the holidays, it’s our go-to spot for fresh food, cold drinks, and lots of flavor. From scratch-made bread and pastries to full breakfast, lunch, and dinner service, everything is crafted with care and a generous dose of heart. Whether guests stop for a quick coffee, share a dinner with friends, or enjoy weekend brunch, there’s something to satisfy every appetite. Some of our favorites include the Lowcountry Fried Chicken Cobb and the Crispy Grouper sandwich. For vegetarians, don’t miss the aptly and comically named: Tree Hugger.
The Sprout Momma experience also extends beyond the table, with live music nights, bread-making classes, and events such as wine dinners, spirit dinners, fundraisers, and collaborations with local vendors.
For the holidays, Sprout Mama has a holiday menu. Find it here!
Frankie Bones on Hilton Head is well-known for their steaks and seafood dishes, and classic American fare. (Our favorite is the Lobster Mac & Cheese – you just can’t go wrong with it!) They have a classic American-bistro vibe on Hilton Head and their bar scene is always hopping. We love the to-go option for the holiday – it leaves the cooking to the professionals and allows us to focus on family and time together. Why stress about food when you don’t have to?
This year, their holiday menu looks better than ever. From Slow-Roasted Prime Rib that feeds 10-12 people to a petit sweet, sliced ham feeding 4-6, there are several options and you also get several side dishes. From a twice baked potato casserole to cornbread dressing, our mouth is watering already! Order before December 19th and pick-ups are scheduled on December 24 from 11 am – 4 pm. You’ll be so glad you outsourced this.
We think if you vacation on Hilton Head for Christmas, you will truly get a chance to recharge, return with renewed energy, and carry positive memories, rather than a lingering sense of overwhelm. Ordering your meal will give you even more time and connection with loved ones rather than working all day in the kitchen. Enjoy these options & Happy Holidays from all of us at Beachside Getaway!
